Suboptimal rehabilitation limits recovery from health conditions. Technology offers the potential support to increase access to recommended levels of rehabilitation but needs to be designed to suit end users and not just their impairment. Our cocreation model, built around participation in an intensive, technology-based program, has produced new accessible technology and demonstrated the feasibility of our overall approach to providing the rehabilitation that people need, for as long as needed.
